Semiconductor fabs.
Front-end wafer cleanrooms, advanced packaging, compound semi. Renka has been on site in the EU semiconductor cluster for over 15 years - in Saxony, in the Po Valley, in Crolles, in the Brainport region. With live-fab experience, not just greenfield construction. Current focus is the EU Chips Act pipeline.
Three active mega projects. 110 km from Jablonec.
The EU Chips Act pipeline is more concentrated in 2026 than the headlines suggest. Intel Magdeburg halted. ST/GF Crolles deferred. Wolfspeed Ensdorf frozen. What is actually being built sits within a few kilometres of Dresden:
- ESMC Dresden - TSMC joint venture with Bosch, Infineon and NXP. Tool move-in H2 2026.
- Infineon Smart Power Fab Dresden - 300mm power semi, production start 2026.
- GlobalFoundries Dresden - SPRINT project, EUR 1.1bn capacity expansion, groundbreaking March 2026.
Three active mega projects, together around EUR 16 bn of investment, all inside the Silicon Saxony cluster around Dresden. Renka is 110 km away in Jablonec - site management and standing crew can be on site the same day. At the Dresden wafer sites Renka crews have worked repeatedly over the past 15 years (details in the section below).
15 years of continuous cluster presence.
Where Renka crews have been repeatedly on site across the five European semiconductor clusters over the past 15 years. Location, scope and timeframe are open - end-client mapping is in the prequalification dossier under NDA.
